Acclaimed soloists in their own right, Mark Knoop and Carl Rosman also regularly perform at the heart of such new music groups as the Libra Ensemble, ELISION, Plus-Minus and musikFabrik. For the last 16 years they have performed widely in Australia and Europe as a duo, rising to the most utopian demands of today’s composers for the combination of clarinet and piano. For the Cutting Edge they perform new works by Andrew Digby and Adam de la Cour as well as the UK première of Michael Finnissy’s Clarinet Sonata and Richard Barrett’s controversial Flechtwerk, composed for them in 2007.
